The material in Advanced Flight Instruction A Teaching Guide for Aviators is based on science, research, and experience. However it is technique, not procedure. Please view these techniques as core knowledge and competencies rather than an all inclusive reference. Teaching with excellence is a process that is never quite finished. The best instructors never stop learning. We are always looking for opportunities to teach others and, in-turn, develop ourselves. This guide should help with both.
